Quick take
A 2.25-inch compact hollow-body topwater frog with short skirts and weedless hooks designed for bass in thick cover.
The Dusk color of the Lunkerhunt Compact Frog is a 2.25-inch topwater frog that weighs half an ounce, aimed at bass and pike. Pre-trimmed short skirts keep its profile compact, and its weedless design lets it move through thick cover. Anglers who want a frog that walks across the surface in weedy water will find it suited to shallow bass and pike.
